enki42 posted:That's sort of the state of the whole world though (not that it excuses Canada in any way). Is there any country where a most of the people in it have legitimately acknowledged and atoned for all the horrible things they had done in the past? Germany is the only possible exception that springs to mind, and in that case the scale was just too large (and Germany was so throughly defeated) that it was impossible to ignore.

Arcsquad12 posted:All the more reason why weepy politicians talking about how sad this all is deserve to get shot into the sun. gently caress the politicians, get a public advocacy group to examine the sites and lay the skeletons at the feet of those responsible. It doesn't matter if the politicians reject responsibility they were never going to accept. What is important is that the public knows and forces action. flakeloaf posted:The Hiroshima museum "recall[s] with great sorrow the many lives sacrificed to mistaken national policy", which is the closest thing I've ever seen to an admission... not that I've looked that hard, of course Every now and then you do see some healthier reflection like at the museums at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Nagasaki had an important introductory section where they briefly laid out the path to the nuclear attack through the war in China and the subsequent war in the Pacific.

Lassitude posted:With time religion will go away on its own as a major cultural force. The Internet broke that spell I think, we're all way less religious than our parents. It would be nice to eliminate the special place the Catholic Church holds within Canadian society, though. Do they really need their own separate school board in Ontario, for example, given their history and contemporary irrelevance? enki42 posted:I think the Catholic school system will unfortunately outlast most actual practicing Catholics in Ontario. There's no upside to any party getting rid of it - the people who think it shouldn't exist are at most sort of mildly annoyed by it, and it isn't going to make the top 10 list of anyone's voting priorities, and there's a smaller group of people who absolutely will not vote for you if you advocate getting rid of it.

At least because it's July they can't open up schools way too early again. Please don't turn into a real life Beaverton article send kids back to school in July or August.

I think the side effects are a total dice roll. Some people feel absolutely nothing, some have mild symptoms, and some get knocked on their rear end. GF and I got Pfizer for both our doses, and we were actually shocked that we shared almost identical experiences both times. First shot was a mildly sore arm for a day, second shot was the sore arm again with a general feeling of laziness, but the latter could be cause by so many other things.

Vintersorg posted:These guys are all fuckers and buying a new house has --- imo --- been a horrible decision. Our siding has come off regularly and the guy was like, "well i normally leave it but it's been windy" - fucker, it's ALWAYS windy on the prairies. He was supposed to nail them all in but yesterday a small strip on my garage was off. These guys are all crooks and pieces of poo poo. Burn the industry to the ground. I know any new building is going to have some growing pains but to be that guy for a second, when I lived in Japan one of my places was also a brand new building. Zero issues, everything was perfect with that unit. Crappy buildings everywhere doesn't have to be the norm.

The silver lining with the Liberals lying about electoral reform is that the PPC get jack poo poo in seats despite taking 5% of the vote. This is also the second election in a row where the CPC got more total votes than the Liberals.

Since this is the second election in a row where the CPC has got more votes than the Liberals yet ended up with significantly fewer seats, why aren't they screaming at the top of their lungs for electoral reform? It plays into the conservative persecution complex, and gives them plenty of mud to sling at Trudeau since it was his government that immediately dropped that campaign promise once elected in 2015. This seems like it should be a slam dunk issue for them to take up, am I missing something?
